Instructions
For Caramel Sauce
- Heat 1 cup white sugar in a heavy bottom pan on a slow flame. Keep stirring and after 5 minutes the sugar will start crystallizing. Keep stirring for 2 more minutes till it starts to become watery. Continue stirring until the color changes to a light golden color and the sugar is now in a clear liquid form. This whole procedure will take about 8 to 10 minutes. Now add soft butter and stir well until the butter melts and is well combined with the sugar. Finally, add salt and heavy cream and stir for a couple of minutes until the sauce thickens and runs smooth. Do not try to taste while cooking as the caramel sauce is much hotter.
For crepes
- Pour a ladle full (2 or 3 tbsp) of batter into the pan and slowly rotate the pan in such a way that batter spreads evenly over the pan making thin crepes. Cook for 1 minute flip over the crepe and again cook for 30 seconds on the other side. Remove on a plate and cool before adding the stuffing.
- Take a crepe and place thin banana slices on the half part of the crepe. Drizzle with caramel sauce and cover with the other part making a half-moon. Fold it further into a triangle. Serve with a scoop of ice cream, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, and some more fruits.
